Phishing using email address used on the pistonheads forum

[fjinnes]

Hi,

I received the following email today -

Title - Re: What to do with the item

Hello!

I am responding to the email for your auction which was posted on eBay. I emailed you a week ago regarding this sale, and about my interest in it. Please confirm that it is the same auction with the one posted on eBay link
Hope to hear from you soon!
Sincerely,
Aliona McGarrh

This was addressed to a unique email address I only use to register with pistonheads.

Clicking on the link take you to a good copy of ebay's logo page, but obviously is not an ebay web address, with a username and password logon box.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but I thought that it was important.

Cheers

Fraser

Thanks for raising that. If you could forward that e-mail to me at pistonheads.com I'll take care of it.

Cheers,

Brilliant timing. I had exactly the same one this morning. Matt do you want me to forward mine as well? I can't do that till tomorrow though?

[MattDell]

Yes, please. We have some means of limiting phishing e-mails so I'll get these two (and any others you want to send) taken care of.
